His motherlworked in the field to keep that sickly boy at school. At 15 he went to Paris alone, starved for seven years, painted without success, but still painted.' He had just finished a picture to send to the salon when. Paris was besieged and he rushed with iis comrades to the trenches. On the first day a shell fell into his studio and destroyed his picture and another shell fell at his feet, wounding him. He was carried home and lay ill and idle for two years.. Then he returned to Paris and, reduced to absolute want, painted cheap fans in order to earn for himself a living. One day a manufacturer of some patent medicines ordered a picture from him to illustrate its virtues. Lepage, who was sincere; gave his best Work to the advertisement. He painted a landscape in the April sunlight, the leaves of tender green quivered in the breeze; a group of beautiful. girls gathered round the fountain from which the elixir of youth sprang in a buboiing steam. Lepage believed there was real merit in it. "Let me offer, it to the salon," he said to his patron. The manufacturer was delighted. "But first paint a rainbow arching over the fountain," he said, "with the name of my medicine upon it." Lepage refused. "Then I will not pay you a sou for the! picture!" The price of his pic ture meant bread for months and the painter had long needed bread. The chance of admission to the salon was small. He hesitated. Then he silenced his hunger and carried the canvas to the salon. It was admitted! Its great success insured Lepage a place in pub lie recognition and his later, work a place among the greatest living; artists. - : 3 The French painter, Bastien Lepage, :!" ! mL: 'hi 'it L.e-P- 'e Thuo "Won His. .

Bald Porcupine is one of the many Islands in Frenchman's Bay, which, on account of its inaccessibility, has not been made a place of visitation by the summer tourist. It has been used for ,; sheep raising. Harvey Hodgkins and Eri Bunker, of Bar Harbor, were strolling about the island recently and when near the highest point saw a dark spot on the cliff. The top of the rough cliff towered fifty feet above. j Bunker let himself In for a dozen feet, but soon appeared again and said it was dark as night within and that the passage led away to the right into a big chamber. The two men then procured torches and lanterns. They knew that men were then digging for Capt. Kidd's burled treasure near Ellsworth, only a score of miles away, and, they thought that if the pirate had buried his wealth anywhere on the Maine coast he could not have selected a better place than the cave on Bald Porcupine, which SCOTCH HONESTY. guards the entrance of a harbor fitted A True Picture of Ancient Life in the by nature for a pirate's retreat.

"Ha, ha, Mr. Marston; quite a joke, taking me for a burglar; ha! ha!" r "It doesn't look very much like a joke to me, youijg man,", said the father sternly; "what were you doing entering my house, feloniously in the night?" Sure enough it didn't look much like a joke now that he saw it on both sides. Where was Bob Kennedy, that he did not step forwar to help his; friend out? Where was Gussie ? Where was his own vaunted ccjurage ? He dared not look Gussie's father in the face, and say: "I came to steal your daughter." "Will you kindly explain to the policeman! that you know me, sir, and that I; am not a burglar?" he managed to say at last. I know, you, certainly," jcroaked the old man, "but it you are not a burglar what are you doing with my family silver piled up there? You can explain the matter in court. Officer, do your duty.
